The mission for UP DR is to empower Dominican children and youth by instilling Christian principles of human dignity, promoting education to inspire new ideas that will motivate others to achieve excellence, and to embrace the diversity that make up the Dominican people.

Summer camp

We serve the children from the Fernando De La Cruz primary school district. Summer Camp activities engage and encourage children to develop diverse friendships. At Camp Agape we not only play games, sing songs, and do arts and crafts- webecome family.

SATURDAY program

UrbanPromise Saturday Program helps elementary school aged children work as a team, learn life skills, and grow in their Christian faith. The children get to participate in interactive activities!

Youth Leadership Program

The Youth Leadership Program empowers local youth to become agents of change in their own community. As these high school aged youth are mentored and tutored they learn how to plan lessons, teach, and inspire children. They are the core of our ministry.
